A new independent turbine ventilator offers liberating performance to hospitals confronted with unstable air supply from wall outlets.

The Maquet SERVO-air turbine ventilator was developed in cooperation with physicians, nurses, and respiratory therapists from regions of the world where it is expected to be used, such as India, South Africa, Japan, and even the United States, and is intended for use in the intensive care unit (ICU) and sub-acute care setting. The turbine offers an independent supply of medical grade air at a high flow rate and pressure capacity, which is crucial to provide comfortable ventilation.

Built-in features include context-based guidance, on-screen information, and dynamic images that guide the users in advanced ventilation. Thanks to the battery powered turbine and hot-swappable batteries, the SERVO-air can also follow the patient easily throughout the hospital. The SERVO-air is also a strong choice for addressing the growing trend of noninvasive ventilation (NIV), as it reduces the need for separate dedicated NIV ventilators. The Maquet SERVO-air turbine ventilator is a product of Maquet (Rastatt, Germany).

“With the launch of SERVO-U one and a half years ago, we believe we set the standard in user-friendliness, introducing the first ICU ventilator that features an all-touch-screen-based user interface,” said Jens Viebke, PhD, president and CEO of critical care at Maquet. “SERVO-air is a strong option to work alongside our ventilators that offer more advanced lung-protective options, such as SERVO-U.”
